Go to the eye doctor. If you have insurance, it would be covered under medical. If not, the eye doctor is cheaper then the medical doctor.

Pink eye would produce yellow crusties in your eyes and after waking up, they would be "glued" shut. Plus, there would be itching and very watery eyes. (or in one).

Pink eye is extremely contagious. If you used someone's pillow, towel, or anything that was touched by another with pink eye, you would get it easily. wash alot and don't share anything you touch with anyone until it goes away. You will need special drops from the eye doctor to get rid of it.

yeah go see your doctor just in case. but i would say its pink eye. dont ur yer eyes!

ok...seriously. any different disease or infection starts this way. it coud probably pink eye ....BUT it could also be herpes or acanthamoeba.......if u dont want to have MIS diagnosis...i recommend to see a corneal specialist....and this is coming from someone who went through with this. i was misdagnosed 3 times!

go to the doctor, my son had what i thought was pink eye and it turned out to be a strand of HIB if it had spread into his system he could have died. Also pinkeye usually has a pussy , sticky discharge like your eye will stick shut
